Sert's new neighbors in West Hollywood definitely had no idea he was wanted by the Turkish police.

In 2014, Serhat Bata 1920s bungalow encircled by bushy green hedges.

He moved into the three bedroom house

with his new American husband, Anderson.

They paid $1.2 million for it.

The following April, Serhat threw a party. He opened the house's

sky-blue door and festooned the yard with lights.

Among those invited was someone had just met from the neighborhood.

This man who asked not to be named

remembers being surprised by the invitation from his charming super fit neighbor.

At the party, Serhat came over and suggested they pose for a photo together. Around the same time, Serhat reached out to a wealthy Turkish investor.

According to Robert, the Hindenburg researcher,

Serhat told this investor that he had an amazing real estate opportunity in LA.

He said, give me $930,000.

I'm going to buy this house and I'm going to flip it for you.

It was the house of his guest from the party.

Serhat had escrow papers, bills of sale, all in the name of the unsuspecting man had taken a photo with.

The theory from the person I spoke with is that Serhat could get his fingerprints and could get pictures with

this gentleman and it would aid him and being able to steal his identity.

The whole scam seems kind of preposterous, but it worked. He basically sold a house to an overseas investor that he didn't even

own in the first place. So he just picked a random house on a street that he lived on, like two

houses down from him, and he went to this overseas investor and he said, I'm going to flip it for you.
